Back from Japan. Miss it already.
I have a feeling the next week or so is going to be hell. Especially since there's a baby in the house right now as my parents are taking care of the grandkid.
Also not that great that I come back and am already stressed out over a lot of things. Especially con related stuff. Looks like I'll have to do a post trying to figure out what exactly is going on as I'm very confused on a lot of things.
Hm, it's taking me some time to get back used to the regular keyboard. *laughs*
Reports will probably start whenever I get Jordan's pictures to go along with it as I ended up not having my camera with me for like 4 days so ended up only taking like 60 or so pictures total as a result.
The trip was absolutely amazing and I don't regret going at all! Here's some quick highlights:
- Getting a picture taken with two geishas
- Seeing a kabuki actor come on stage in a duck suit to the tune of 2010 A Space Odessey (sp) theme in the middle of a kabuki play
- Getting addicted to Pocari Sweat and our search for the Pocari-sama
- Super Mister Ichiban Gaijin-sama-dono-bozu aka Eeyore
- Yosh!
- Spending two days in a Buddhist monastary with a monk named Kurto-san
- Doing Zen mediataion with a monk named Thomas-san
- Eating as Mister Donuts...many times. And our trips to Book Off and Circle K.
- Standing next to Hideyoshi and Nobununga's graves
- Getting interviewed by many japanese school students
- Seeing a HUGE buddha statue
etc. etc. It was plain amazing. I have to find a way to go back now.
